Upgrade archers or giants first?

It will take ages before I'll be at TH9 and facing this choice, but I'm pretty sure I'll do Giants first, Barbarians second and Archers third.

After reading the replies in this thread, maybe I will think twice about my archer decision :p

But will most likely pick barb over giant though.

Would really love to go like hyper-speed farming mode with Lv6 barb/arch and Lv5 minions :eek:

For you, Giants.For your clan, Archers.

Definitely giants first. Then archers if you managed to build up the container and filled it up in time. If not, barbarians second. Or bloons :cool:

From what I've seen from your play-style, archers seem best for YOU.

These are my few favourite farming army composition
1) Barb/Arch/WB combo
2) Barb/Arch/WB/Minion combo
3) 40/60/40/8/10 Combo
4) 30/60/30/12/10 Combo

And if you notice, majority of the troops in each composition are archers.

And since the wb update, many people are creating more compartments in their base, in which range troops like archers are more important.

Number 2 there has been really growing on me as of late. Sitting on a ton of DE lately, so started cranking out minions on regular basis to go with barbs/archers. Troops train really fast with all 6 barracks firing, and the comp puts out a lot of DPS really, really fast. Bases with high level WT's are what I've been avoiding mostly.

In case anyone's interested, I went with giants :)

All things considered, I think giants are the better move as you seem to get more for less. Plus, if my upgraded giants really make a dramatic difference in taking out an extra wizard tower or mortar then my level 5 archers will do just fine.

Already upgraded barbs, so archers will be next. Looking forward to what the big guys can do in 10 days :p

Thanks again for the advice everyone!

I upgrade archers any time I can but giants are a close second and I usually upgrade those before barbs and after archers.:D
